Learning to Access SILENCE

To access deep wisdom you need to learn the art of silence. When you are quiet and listening within to your own heart song, your rhythm, and the centeredness of your being, thats when you have great access to wisdom, ability and the expanded consciousness. Silence is where you learn that you are an extraordinary being, with unlimited capacity, and that secrets are revealed to you. In moments when you become quiet a wonderful world opens to you. Or shall I say is revealed to you. It is in this space that you recognize the quiet center of your soul that rests in continual peace.

We connect with the divine part of ourselves in the silence. To allow yourself to simply be is the greatest act of respect. This is another lesson that we delve from the silence. from the simple to the extraordinary we encompass all of it. We are capable of the quiet interaction to the great displays of courage, grace, magic, and laughter, to the full blown wildest imagination. As you spend more time in periods of silence, you find that you are renewed, energized, have great ideas, connect with solutions, can propel yourself forward, or can shift from an inflexible position to one of fluidity as swiftly and easily as you need.

You easily recognize what feels peaceful and what or who does not. It becomes a simple thing when you can make an adjustment in your life so that you can retain your peace. The quietude of your mind, and heart is an extraordinary peaceful encounter. When your mind is running with fury and it pulls you in many directions, it is hard to find the balance without the quiet. We need to actively pursue the stillness. We need to quiet our minds, and unburden ourselves of all the mind junk. It does take much practice but everything worthwhile does take practice. The mind is fast and furious. The mind is vengeful and full of its desires and pressures. You must choose the quietude to know your peaceful nature. Silence is the pathway to your higher consciousness and understanding and ability.

Yoga for Pain Management and Relief!

What is Yoga, you ask? And How Can It help You Relieve Pain?

If youre interested in Hatha Yoga, Yoga Retreats, Yoga DVDs, or just want to Learn About Yoga, youve come to the right place! Whether youre interested in Yoga for beginners, or staying in the Yoga Zone throughout all moments of your life, I look forward to a continuing connection with you!

Yes, Yoga has become a buzz word here in the U.S., a very popular and healing activity for Americans from all walks of life. The word Yoga means union, from the Sanskrit root word Yug (to join).

It is the alignment and harmonizing of body, mind and soul that tends to leave the practitioners, the Yogis and Yoginis in a state of peace, bliss, well-being, and contentmentmore or less, depending on their situation!

So how is this bliss, peace, well-being and harmony achieved, you may ask? It is achieved through the steady, slow and repeated practice of various components of most yoga classes.

These components of the yoga classes include: Deep Relaxation (Savasana), Breathing Exercises (Pranayama), Yoga Postures (Yoga asanas or Hatha Yoga), More Deep Relaxation (Savasanapronounced shavasana), and Meditation (Dhyana).

Ideally, each yoga class will also include information about the Yoga of Wisdom (Jnana Yogapronounced gee-anna), and the Yoga of Devotion (Bhakti Yoga). It is most effective if yoga students and practitioners take at least a few yoga classes per week or have a daily practice at home.

Stay tuned for more information about Hatha Yoga, Yoga Retreats and our upcoming DVD, Gentle Yoga.

Hannah Caratti provides tools, instruction, and information about methods of relieving pain and stress through techniques related to the ancient science of Yoga.
